“The Male Machine [Part One]”

DC's charming slice-of-life series rolls into its fourth issue with a cover that perfectly captures the book's cheerful comedic spirit: the bee-suited 'Mazing Man pedals furiously on a tiny tricycle — a curly-haired passenger clinging on behind him — while a looming black Pontiac Trans Am bears down on them at a crosswalk on Freedom Ave. The tagline "Meet… The Male Machine!" promises a story built around that menacing muscle car and its startled driver, all rendered with wit and energy by cover penciler Stephen DeStefano and inker Karl Kesel. If you've been looking for a superhero comic that trades punches for pratfalls without sacrificing genuine heart, this 1986 DC gem is a fine place to start.
